George Stephanpoulos has assured executives at ABC NEWS that he will be ready to fly solo and take on NBC's Tim Russert in the Sunday morning TV wars. (snip)

Steppy is a champ at emotional manipulation of women on a grand scale, which made him a perfect campaign boss for Clinton, who is a champ at emotional manipulation of women on an immediate scale....Like Bubba the he is an intellectual lightweight....(snip)

Russert vs Stephanopoulos?

Russert vs Stephanopoulos?

Whooppee, former democratic operative vs. former democratic operative.
Good reason to press the snooze button Sunday AM.

"I'll be ready by fall..."

That line alone tells me that this is ABC trying to put the glass slipper on the fat, ugly stepsister.

This is ABC's flagship political show (oxymoron?). I've worked in television many years, and an AFFILIATE wouldn't dream of signing an anchor do do a LOCAL show who wasnt even ready...

ABC is wrapping a leftist political lacky in journalistic garb and trying to cram it down our throats.

I will NEVER watch this show.

[Ben Hecks]

At least Russert's mother doesn't have to drive him to work.

Thanks for the post. I enjoyed this and other artilcles in the Oregonian rag.

Russert vs Stephanopoulos?

Both look like rats in heat. Especially Russert with his beady eyes, flushed face and feral teeth.

There is only one man who can save this show:

This is my favorite ORMag piece...

America cannot be protected by profiling!

To ensure we Americans do not offend anyone with our deeply racist culture, airport screeners must not be allowed to PROFILE people. They must continue random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, Secret Service agents who are members of the President's security detail, 85-year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal Of Honor winning former Governors.

Let's pause a moment and take the following test. It will prove once and for all that focusing attention on one group of people will not deal with terrorism.:

1. In 1972 at the Munich Olympics, athletes were kidnapped and massacred by:

(a) Olga Korbutt
(b) Sitting Bull
(c) Arnold Schwartzenegger
(d) Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40

3. During the 1980's a number of Americans were kidnapped in Lebanon by:

4. In 1983, the U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut was blown up by:

(a) A pizza delivery boy
(b) Pee Wee Herman

5. In 1985 the cruise ship Achille Lauro was hijacked, and a 70 year old American passenger was murdered and thrown overboard by:

(a) The Smurfs
(b) Davy Jones
(c) The Little Mermaid
(d) Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40

6. In 1985 TWA flight 847 was hijacked at Athens, and a US Navy diver was murdered by:

(a) Captain Kid
(b) Charles Lindberg
(c) Mother Teresa

7. In 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by:

12. In 2002 reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and murdered by:

(a) Bonnie and Clyde

As any fool can see, the people who perpetrated these atrocities have nothing in common with each other. Our thanks go to Roger Nolastname who sent this to us.

He will be ready to campaign hard for the Rats.

[Zack Nguyen]

LOL.

[timestax]

He'll be ready to fall!!!

[mhking]

If ABC wanted to kill "This Week," all they had to do was to cancel it outright - why put Snuffaluffagus on the air?

[Xenalyte]

George Stephanopoulos has assured executives at ABC NEWS that he will be ready . . .

So he procured a high chair with a phone book in the seat?

[Republic]

Exactly-but then, he can't fall too far since his nose is still stuck up you know who's fatuous arse. So a mommy's little favorite libuuuuuuuuuuraaaaaaaaal is going to have his own show.....one thing remains the same.....ABC hasn't changed its stripes. Hitler would have LOVED this network!

[WaterDragon]

Oregonian rag?????

You must mean The Oregonian Magazine, right? Glad you enjoyed this article, too!

[WaterDragon]

That editorial was a doozy, all right, EBUCK!

Did you click into the one posted here? It left me in stitches! Leonard really knows how skewer those twits!

[EBUCK]

Yah I did. I've got to pay more attention to that mag.
